"Do you want to order now?" Michael asked politely, catching my attention. I nodded since, with the exception of Kate's, I usually order the same thing at every diner I visit. "I'd like a club sandwich and an iced tea, please." "I'll have burgers and an iced drink," Adam remarked as he placed the menu down. His gaze was fixed on Lara. Michael nodded, writing down our orders on a piece of paper, and turned to face Lara, who smiled at him. "We'll get the same one we usually get," Lara replied softly. "You're a regular here?" Adam questioned, echoing my thoughts. Lara glanced at me before turning to face Adam and saying, "Yes, Traian and I usually eat here, which is why Michael had memorized our favorite dish here." When a pang of jealousy slips into my heart, I discreetly take a deep breath and glance around. Stop, there's no reason for me to feel that way. I tried to look elsewhere, anything to divert my attention, but it was futile when Adam asked a direct question once more. "
We finally stopped and I moved away from him only to find him staring at me. As he examined me from head to toe, his jaw was locked. I move away since the intensity of his gaze on my body is making me feel uneasy. Only then did I notice the black ranger on the side. This was the car we took that night when we went to his place. His place was a freaking castle. I turned to face him and took off his coat, handing it to him.I said, "Thank you for this, but I can handle…..." As I looked around, I realized that I had no idea where I was.He tilted his head and cast his gaze over me, saying, "Handle yourself? I doubt that."The intensity of his gaze caused me to shift uneasily on my feet, though not in a bad manner.He took the coat from her and nodded, "Yeah, I gave you this to cover your chest but I think you don't need this anymore because we are alone now," he remarked smugly, "I kind of like you this way.""What are you talking about?" I said annoyed and faced the glass window of the
I sighed and took off my boots, entering the room with only my socks on. Even though there was already a small amount of dirt where Traian walked in, I don't want to scuff up the spotless floor of this lovely house. As soon as I walked inside, the interior astounded me. It was really neat, clean, and organized, with minimal furnishings. It is a mix of simplicity and sophistication. Such a lovely and cozy place. I scanned the area in search of the restroom while debating whether or not to ask Traian where it was. Till the rain stopped and I was out of his sight, it would be best to keep conversation with this man to a minimum. Traian came out of the kitchen and stared at me, which caused my stream of thinking to pause. I couldn't help but notice how fast his gaze swept over my body. Heck, I can feel my body reacting to every movement he makes. I am feeling so wicked right now and bad. So much for being a bad girl. "You are welcome to use the restroom in my room," he said, indicating
We began eating in silence. He finished first while I took my time savoring the delicious food in my mouth. As I savored the last of my steak, I said, "This is really wonderful. Where did you learn to cook? ” I started to ask, simply because I want to. I felt tempted to ask him a question and strike up a conversation with him. “From my mother. She was a good cook and she makes sure I learn all her dishes” I said, "She sounds nice." With a smile on his face, he said, "She is.” His smile was beautiful enough for me to want to see it again. His muscles were tensing up against the shirt he was wearing as my gaze moved over his body. God, a man shouldn't look this handsome. I imagined him naked. Hard. Muscular. Such strength. The thought of him naked once more and with my kisses on his body—something I didn't do the first time—made my cheeks flush. I cleared my throat and put my fingers on the stem of my wine glass, bringing it to my lips. I shuffled in my seat, clamped my thighs t
Traian My want to claim her intensified as I sensed her desire. She couldn't explain the reason for the overwhelming attraction toward me that she felt. She didn't say it out loud, but I still understood what she meant. Her pussy was wet and sensitive, and she questioned why she was aroused—something I could definitely smell and approve of. I watched her every move while she was seated across from me, wriggling on the chair with her little nipples as hard as jewels under the shirt I gave her. It was mine, and the scent of me on her body makes my wolf and I pleased. I allowed my eyes to avert from her face and to her neck. My teeth gnawed at the idea of piercing her flesh and leaving my mark for all guys to see. Mine. Before I met her earlier, I was aware that he had stayed. I can't even begin to express how much relief came over me when her sister called to tell me the good news. But seeing him with that person brought out a possessive part in me. But when I saw him with that h
Traian I smashed my lips into her without waiting for her to reply. I said, "You're mine, Kitten. Mine." My entire body was pressed up against hers. The most startling gasp came from her as I pressed my hardest region across her stomach. My cock throbbed as the thick length demanded to be freed and plunged deep inside my mate. She parted her mouth a little and I pushed my tongue inside. I groaned at the enticing sound of my name coming from her soft lips as she whispered "Traian" into my mouth. She was rubbing up against my body. She was tightly grabbing my arms with her hands. She ended the kiss with a gasp as her head tipped back. Again, I leaned in for a kiss because I couldn't get enough of how wonderful she tasted. My hands moved smoothly down her arms. Her heart was pounding against my fingertips. I stroked her clit while feeling how wet she was and the material as my fingers curved downward to her sweet pussy against her shorts. I growled, "So f*cking wet for me," and slip
Jaidyn It seemed like a fire was blazing inside of me. He was pleased by the sight of me being so transparent. He was fully in me when he murmured, "You are so tight," and my back arched like I felt like I was splitting in two even though he had once been buried deep inside me. His voice was gruff and in need. He is so big. And that was all I can think now that I was completely sane. He grunted with pleasure as he slammed his hands into the bed on either side of my head as he pulled and surged forward.He leaned down and kissed me deeply. "I just can't get enough of you, and I just can't get enough of this." He seized my mouth as quickly as he could and demanded that I take all of him as he forced his tongue between my lips. He had a very strong, spicy, and manly taste. I couldn't help but make a small moaning noise at the back of my throat as desire overpowered everything in me. And that moan of mine seemed to make Traian even more snap, pushing the boundaries of his control. I wan
Traian The gleam of the early-morning sun slipping through the window woke me up. Even though it was morning, my mate was still in my bed. In my arms. A wave of happiness swept over me. My arms tightened as she moved, and a surge of blood rushed to my groin from her sensual groan. Next to having a late-night or early-morning love affair, that is the sort I like. I inhaled deeply, and the enticing sweet scent of Jaidyn immediately put me at ease. Her fingers were tightly entwined with mine, and her back was pressed right up against mine. She nearly gave me the feeling that she was worried I wouldn't be there. Her head was propped up against my arm. I watched her while she slept and saw that occasionally her lips would twitch and she would make a tiny frowning gesture. I followed the curves of her body with my free hand's finger, beginning at her shoulder and going all the way down to her incredibly beautiful round ass. She was so alluring that I found it impossible to look away from
Jaidyn's Pov I sighed in pleasure as the cold breeze passed. My heart thundered as I smelled the woods that surrounded the castle where I lived with my mate. Home. Traian. A soothing elixir for my soul, his name lingered in the back of my thoughts. As with living with someone other than my own family, being mated takes some getting accustomed to but Traian and I managed to cope. He was so patient with me every day. He was also very protective, making sure I was constantly taken care of. He didn't often wander far or leave me alone. I turned to look at the people cooking and setting up for our celebration outside, among them were Claire, Evan, their daughter Clara, Adam, Sally, Kate, and her mate David, Jane, Jaxon, their son Jacob, Mom and Dad, and the Grevis Pack locals. As the sun peaked above the treetops, everything appeared to gleam golden. Cayen was not here and had a business trip in the United States while Anna had something come up. She was supposed to be here, and even
Jaidyn's Pov I was panting, my body was buzzing with relief. I still wanted something much bigger inside of me to ease this fire in me. I felt a shudder leave me as Traian kissed my inner thigh softly and licked it long and slowly. I felt one of his long, extended teeth gently scrape down my flesh. He took a sharp breath and then backed away. His eyes were hooded, his lips were parted, and his head leaned back slightly. He spoke in a strained voice I couldn't identify as human, saying, "I can't wait any longer to be inside you" I nodded while licking my lips. “I need you now.” I felt his body tense. Traian stripped, and despite his huge size and close-to-wolf transition, he was incredibly gentle with me. I let my gaze wander freely on his length. He had the recognizable enormous thickness to his cock. It seems like a very long time ago. I continued to follow the contours of his abdomen, noting the slabs of muscle, the chiseled upper chest, and the masculine points of his nipples.
Traian's Pov She was standing right in front of me. She smelt exquisite as I breathed in her sweetness, I growled. The closer Jaidyn got to me, the more my cock hardened and grew impossibly larger and thicker. She also caressed my arms, digging her claws into my flesh. More than anything else in my whole life, I longed for her. I had my mate at last. I wanted Jaidyn to be at my side for the rest of my life and to bear my mark on her. She will only ever be ours, my wolf sighed. We'll lay claim to her tonight as our mate. As I caressed her tongue with mine, I caught hold of the back of her head. But as each second passed, she moved closer to me, and when the sun eventually sank and the moon quickly grew full, my need grew double. The need to mark her became intolerable now that there was a full moon and my mate was in front of me. We have been apart for a very long period, which has only increased our desire and longing. My wolf was the one who said it, but my human side was just
I waved at Cayden who dropped me off at Traian's house in the middle of the woods and near the creek. That sun had already set which I realized too late because I have been so occupied with Claire and the others' company. I spent the whole afternoon at Cayden's place, watching the videos of their wedding and other events which were mostly hilarious. When I invited them to accompany me to surprise Traian, they all vehemently objected, insisting that I should go alone. I made my way to the porch. I raised my hand to knock but immediately stopped midair. I inhaled deeply, quickly brushed my now short, reddish-brown hair, tucked my shirt in, and adjusted the way the green scarf Traian had given me was positioned around my neck. I raised my hand again to know but I was not yet to thump to the wooden door when it flung open, revealing the half-naked Traian with only black sweatpants. His midnight hair was still damp from the shower and the citrus with sandalwood scent immediately reached m
Jaidyn's Pov 2 years later............ 'Go, go where your heart belongs to' My thoughts were filled with the words of the elderly woman who was my closest neighbor in the town where I spent two years and who helped me grow my plants. I glanced down at the photo I had just taken of her and her granddaughter Alice, who was then 20 years old, standing by my side. Behind us was my modest house and yard, which was bursting to the seams with tall, vivid flowers. The pictures resemble those of houses in fairytale images. It was very magical to look back again. I put the picture in my wallet again and turned to face the airplane window, my lips curling in a smile. I'm returning to the town and the man I made a vow to after a two-year absence. During that period, I travel alone, encounter amazing people, learn a lot, and gain new insights into life. I also succeeded in acquiring and moving to a little cottage in a rural area close to a lake and a forest for a year. That place captured my
Traian's Pov I watch from a distance as the ex-fiance of Jaidyn leaves. I can't help but follow them and unintentionally hear their conversation. When the man named Anthony came up to my side, he glance at me and pat my shoulder. He whispered painfully, "Take care of her" “I will” A sorrowful smile spread across his face as he continued to walk away while I strolled in the direction of Jaidyn. I found her gazing where the sun rays were slicing through the feast of trees. "Jaidyn" I gently called her, grasping her elbow. She turned to face me, her face painted with a dejected smile I pulled her close, hugging her. She wrapped her arms around me and held me tightly. We stayed like that for a few minutes before we went back to my place. Everyone was there, waiting for us. The first to approach Jaidyn and give her a hug was Jane and her parents, with me standing nearby. "Are you okay?" Janette asked, holding her daughter's face. "Yes, Mom" Jane quipped, "What did he say?" "Not
Jaidyn's Pov I gaped in disbelief at the tall man, whose blonde curls framed his fine, somber face. Cayden and the others looked in our direction and so did Anthony. He looked at me with his pure gray eyes widening, but his eyes settled on me and Traian's clasped hands His jaw tightened. He screamed out "Jaidyn" as he came up to approach me, but Traian cut him off right away. His fists are clenching and unclenching as his spine tenses. Cayden stated in frustration, "I attempted to stop him but he continues on claiming that he knows Jaidyn” Anthony retorted, "And that is true! Jaidyn is my fiance!" Jane hissed, "Was” Traian glances my way as I pinch his hand. His blue eyes sparkle with dread and worry. Is he concerned that I may disregard him? Anthony was just now part of my past. Nothing more. When he chose to end our relationship, I didn't have any plans to go back to him even when I didn't meet Traian here. He had already caused me enough pain. I am aware of my worth. I smile
Traian's Pov I watched Jaidyn brush her hair delicately. Her back was covered in a waterfall of crimson hair. My fingers tingle with the want to run them through her silky, smooth hair. That which I did last night while making her come several times. And she quickly grumbled to me this morning how sore she was. I was casually observing her as I leaned on the doorframe. My eyes swept over her form and focused on her broad hips. I let my gaze linger on it, enjoying the view. Although she was aware that her flight was in the late afternoon, she decided to prepare early. Along with her parents and sister, she will be traveling. Watching her inside my room, doing her makeup, and me waiting for her was one of my dreams. More than a month has passed since I was so close to losing her. That unpleasant recollection was seared into my brain. I felt as though my heart had been crushed into a
Jaidyn’s Pov I finish brushing my hair one more time and set the brush on the dressing table. I turned back to the mirror and grinned. My heart thrilled as I noticed how my green eyes sparkled and how my face lit up. I grinned even wider when I noticed another reflection in the mirror. It was Traian, leaning on the door of his new room. For a few days before leaving, he asked me to stay in his room. We stayed home and cuddled each other every night, doing nothing but that. My parents and I will be returning to the United States tomorrow. And honestly, Claire and the others have just requested longer days, so I've had to reschedule my departure five times. The other day, when I informed them that I would be leaving for good tomorrow, there were many tears shed. The thought of leaving made my heart ache, but I must do this. For myself. I also went to the town and struck up friendly interactions with a few locals, including the folks at Michael's Diner, where I also ran across Nate the
